In all seriousness, with portal what it is and the bag game in full swing, why are they targeting high school kids?
Why would you not pull a bunch of proven starters off other teams? I don't think optics really matter anymore do they?
the number 1 class ranking and "best class ever" are the goals here.

This is all true. Having said that, does anyone here think that Saban and more to the point his support staff would've had some shit that looked like it was from San Saba's Prom for their recruiting purposes? The transitive state of the end zone project should be irrelevant to the discussion because the support staff should be held to a championship level - no different than the coaching staff. Was it a big deal in the whole scheme of things? No, it's just some photo bullshit - but the precedent of "good enough" within the program is not acceptable, imo.
It's a nonsense "problem" but this is how large orgs fail -- it's attestation of mediocrity.

It was Matt Ware talking about hosting a top recruit and getting really high and losing the kid
I'm really glad you posted it - dude set that story up brilliantly. Walking up the steps at the basketball game and seeing the DB coach all pissed ... "Bro, you gotta come to UCLA"

that’s a good get for tech. Dude can ball and has an excellent frame.

He just announced he is going to Baylor's junior day this weekend.
TCU as well. He was at Oregon last weekend and if I had a CB that would be mine - though I think a visit to Florida may change that as well.

At the very least, IT is selling that Texas is shallow.

The state of Texas is shallow this year as well.
Disagree completely. Guys like Jaydon Chatman, Deldrick Mason, and Jaden Platt are barely in the top 50. The class has plenty of talent in state - the bigger issue is that most of the top talent isn’t that interested in Texas right now. That’s the impact of the 1-6 finish.

Napier made like 2 good hires and invented 30+ positions for his friends to get jobs. I think he’s going to fail there.
Look, I hate the Gators with all of my tiny shriveled heart but Napier is going to fucking kill it there as much as that pains me to say.

Is Cook going back to aggy this weekend?
Yes. He's from DeSoto and Mathis is not only back but his sons are on the team and at least one is being "recruited" by aggy. You can go ahead and assume Cook, Milliner-Jones, and Buford are going to be in CStat every weekend.

Yeah but if you hired GP with that in the back of your mind, why even both retaining the guy?
7 minutes ago, Burt Macklin said:Sark already hired the replacement DC.
do you guys think Sarkisian hired GP? Did you see that guy when he was asked about it. That guy isn't here to replace PK in a break glass emergency ...

It could also be that McCutchin hit the portal market and found that there isn't a huge market for 155 pound malcontents.

So when we physically whipped OU, OSU and Baylor for a half, that wasn't because of S&C but when we lost the leads it was because of S&C?
9 minutes ago, Hookem2147 said:Also, practice structure?
This team does FAR less reps than any of our competitors and practices in a very old school style. FAR less. There are more guys watching drills and practice than actively practicing at any given time, even when broken down in positional drills. that is not modern college football.
Look, if you think this team is as physical as the teams under Herman and if you think that there isn't a S&C problem - that's cool - but we will for sure agree to disagree until the end of time.

And Our DL is still the same DL that got run all over last year.
unless there is a scheme and technique change this will remain no matter who is playing DL. If you ask the DL to catch OL and attempt to control 2 gaps you are passive from the snap. If you play bail-and-trail at CB for a majority of your snaps you are passive. If you give the WRs leverage by formation (despite down and distance) you are passive and beaten before the snap. Hell, giving up short/quick passing game in any down/distance in this conference is simply ceding death by paper cuts, esp if you can't stop the run and won't combat heavy player personnel groupings. This isn't even getting into subpar S&C and practice structure. The huge drop in physicality from this team in year one under this coaching staff was remarkable.
The great secret of CFB is that the BigXii has become a very physical conference - see the bowl games - and this is very much a finesse football team on both sides of the ball.

As he should. Worst performing group going back several years.
Agreed. Though part of it seemed to be the same problem Texas had last year - coaches sticking with “their guys” despite them being clearly outplayed by younger more athletic players. Fields was one of the worst defenders I’ve seen at OU and nothing was getting him off the field.
I don’t see guys like Washington and McCutchin being recruited by BV going forward. Tiny frames and a lack of physicality.
